Задания по самостоятельной работе студентов (с ответами) учебной дисциплины ОГСЭ.03 «Иностранный язык» (английский) разработаны на основе Федерального государственного образовательного стандарта (далее – ФГОС) по программе подготовки специалистов среднего звена в соответствии с ФГОС специальности среднего профессионального образования (далее – СПО) 46.02.01 «Документационное обеспечения управления и архивоведение»
Задания по самостоятельной работе студентов (с ответами) содержат общие и единые требования к выполнению и оформлению лабораторных работ и практических занятий.
Организация-разработчик: Красноярский промышленный колледж – филиал Федерального государственного автономного образовательного учреждения высшего профессионального образования «Национальный исследовательский ядерный университет «МИФИ» (КПК НИЯУ МИФИ)
ПОЯСНИТЕЛЬНАЯ ЗАПИСКА
«Задания по самостоятельной работе студентов (с ответами)» составлены по «Book 1» — «Книге 1» «Secretarial» — «Делопроизводство» и соответствуют программе преподавания иностранного языка и календарно – тематическим планам учебной дисциплины ОГСЭ.03 «Иностранный язык (английский)».
Необходимость разработки данных заданий обусловлена специальностью групп, уровнем обучения иностранному языку и учебной литературой. Степень заинтересованности студентов в изучении английского языка — варьируется. Все студенты способны перевести слова, данные в начале каждого урока.
Студенты учат слова в зависимости от того, какую оценку хотят получить:
- 1/3 всех слов – на «3»,
- 2/3 слов на — «4»,
- все слова – на «5».
То обстоятельство, что не все студенты способны овладеть одинаковым объёмом словарного запаса каждого урока, приводит к ошибкам на заключительном этапе. Здесь студентам предлагается перевести текст упражнения с русского языка на английский.
Перевод с русского на английский показывает уровень усвоения лексических единиц по каждой теме и подчиняется грамматическим правилам, как русского, так и английского языков. В английском языке – строгий порядок слов, а в русском – свободный. Кроме того, в английском предложении всегда должен быть глагол, а в русском предложении глагол часто отсутствует. Разные грамматические нормы двух языков делают перевод с русского языка на английский как самым трудным, так и наиболее интересным видом заданий.
В своей работе я использую раздаточный материал, позволяющий быстро и эффективно проверять допущенные каждым студентом ошибки. На разных этапах работы я предлагаю студентам ознакомиться с правильным вариантом выполнения задания. Например, студентам с более высоким уровнем обучения достаточно только взглянуть на образец, и продолжать работать самостоятельно.
Представленные на рассмотрение студентов раздаточные материалы демонстрируют также и допущенные ими орфографические ошибки. Кроме того, выданные на дом в качестве домашнего задания, тексты могут быть использованы для других видов работы. Это может быть: заучивание наизусть, перевод с английского на русский, построение в опросительных предложений разного типа, изменение предложений в активном (действительном) залоге на предложения в пассивном (страдательном) залоге, и наоборот.
Творческий подход подразумевает разработку собственных аналогичных заданий, что способствует закреплению материала на уровне понимания. В составе группы – студенты с начальным и средним уровнем изучения английского языка. Задания разработаны поэтапно, с учётом лексики и грамматики каждого семестра, со второго по четвёртый курс — включительно. Принцип «от простого – к сложному» и систематическое выполнение заданий способствуют пониманию и закреплению материала.
Задания подобраны с целью повторения всех грамматических тем аудиторных занятий и направлены на обогащение словарного запаса студентов профессиональными терминами с учётом выбранной ими специальности. Сборник ответов предоставляется студентам после самостоятельного выполнения ими конкретного задания с целью наглядности, а также – для возможности проведения сравнительного анализа правильных ответов с собственным результатом.
